Week 21 Doctor Appointment

Evan and I have a really wonderful doctor that we've been seeing every month.  He is very calm and level headed, and I don't think he over-shares unnecessary medical information with us.  I've heard horror stories from my friends whose doctors say things like "I hate to tell you this, but there is a 1% chance that your baby has Down Syndrome."  Well, yes I see that the doctors have to be transparent and share the information they have about your pregnancy, but would it be possible to say something like "Congratulations, there is a 99% chance that your baby does not have Down Syndrome!"  The truth is that you can't do anything about it anyway - I suppose in some cases there is the option to abort a pregnancy, but that is not something we are interested in, so in some ways it feels like the less information we get the better.  We had a conversation in our last appointment with the doctor about how technology during pregnancy is not always the most bene...

The Long Awaited Arrival of The World's Cutest Babies!

Olivia has no problem breastfeeding, she would be latched to my boob all day if she could.  Timing seem...

Glucose, Heartburn, and Exhaustion Oh My!

Let's start this post off with a little pregnancy humor.  My friend Sarah sent this to me. Phew it's a hot one today!  Well, it's hot for the bay area.  We got into the 80's, which means cool showers and putting the fan on high because we don't have very much air flow in the apartment.  I got chores out of the way early, so I was able to relax this afternoon before my doctors appointment. I'm seeing the doctor every other week now to keep a close eye on what's going on.  Last week I took the glucose test to check for gestational diabetes, so was looking forward to getting those results today.  The appointment started off well when I learned that I had only gained two pounds since the last appointment ... it's the tiny victories keep me optimistic among the discomfort of carrying twins.  I had to wait a while in the room before the doctor came in, so I was reading through one of the parenting magazines.  I got to a page that talked...
